CellRobot is the first complete consumer robotics kit that allows you to build your very own robot. Created by a team of Ivy-league Chinese robotics engineers, CellRobot is bringing accessible robotics to everybody!

Modular robotics is one of the most complex areas of robotics because each added element allows new movements & functionality. Normally such robots are exclusive to research labs, until now. CellRobot is bringing accessible robots to consumers.

Create one to draw a picture, help with time-lapse photos, monitor your home for security & more!

Just as the cells in our bodies work together to create an organism, CellRobot is made up of single cells that, when combined, build functioning robots. Unique in its progressive design, CellRobot gives you the opportunity to learn, explore & create.

Start with a Heart, snap on Cells & add Functional Cells like vision, wheels, or mounts for additional functionality!

Each cell has eight joint faces which can be connected to each other through a simple twist movement. The joints will snap together for secure attachment.

CellRobot’s app has an extensive pre-uploaded shape library. From the home screen, open the Shape library and scroll through numerous builds. Once you’ve selected your design, follow the interactive instructions to easily create a robot. The app detects your robot and tells you which cells to attach to which joints. Refresh to get helpful feedback about position and placement. Then, control your robot with preprogrammed movements.

Once you feel comfortable with CellRobot and have your own ideas for build, you can create through ‘Custom Mode’ in the app. CellRobot detects the positioning of each cell unit. Create a new design and set specific parameters for how each cell unit will move. You have the power to create complex and specific movements. Save your designs in the app to access later or share with the community. Set your movements in one of two ways: setting parameters for each cell in the app or manually twisting cells into desired positions.

CellRobot allows you to create complex cinematic & combinatory movement through manipulation of each single cell-all through your smartphone!

Home Surveillance

Zoom a CellRobot around your house with a camera to monitor every room while you’re away.

Racing Vehicle

Personal Assistant

Set your robot to water your garden, create a perfect reading lamp, fan you when you’re hot, or hold your iPad while you FaceTime. CellRobot can even mix your cocktail after a long day!

Futuristic Gadget

CellRobot opens up a limitless world of exploration, eliminating boredom of restrictive robots that box in your imagination. What will you create!?

Anything you can conceptualize, you can build! The modular design allows one Heart unit to be connected up to 20 Cells, including Wheels, Vision & Mount.

CellRobot’s app allows users to control their robot without programming, directly from their phone or tablet.

Due to the modularity, you can create extremely unique & hyper concentrated movements. Each individual cell has a full 360 degree rotation, allowing the user to program degree of rotation, timing & order of movements. This means that no limits are set on what you can create or what your robot can do!

Working with CellRobot encourages critical thinking & creative exploration. Creating from within the shape library employs classical mechanics, having users follow directions & make physical connections. When users create with custom mode, they expand even further into programming logic, setting specific rules that define how an entire system will operate.

No coding or mechanical engineering knowledge is required to start building. All units connect through a simple but secure twist & snap joint. Because it is so easy to get started, anybody can use CellRobot to create their own high functioning robot.

Use CellRobot as a jumping off platform for your imagination & share with the community what you discover. This allows for continual growth through a community with a shared passion for robotics.

Join & Grow the CellRobot Community

CellRobot provides an open Hardware Platform Interface (HPI) to our users to encourage makers to contribute to the growth of our robot community. Our goal is to enable all developers to add their functional modules to the platform to make CellRobot smarter and more powerful. The CellRobot community encourages creativity & innovation through an easy-to-use platform. Users have the opportunity to add actuators like a robot hand or pneumatic suction cup or distance & infrared sensors.
